Call on Peru to stop privatisation of water and sanitation - Advice from PSI

http://www.world-psi.org/en/call-peru-stop-privatisation-water-and-sanitation  - Can you help support our PSI public sector workers and their communities ?? The global union federation Public Services International and its affiliate unions in Peru call for messages to be sent from around the world to pressure the Peruvian government to reverse a new policy to sell off the public water and sanitation services for private profit.

Luis Isarra, president of the Water Workers Union of Peru (FENTAP) is clear :  "President Humala is going down the wrong road.  He is bowing to pressure from both within and outside of Peru to turn this sector into another source of profits.  We need to demonstrate enough counter-pressure: FENTAP and CGTP are mobilising workers in Peru and working with many civil society groups in our country.  We ask PSI and sister unions from around the world to demonstrate pressure from outside."
Please send your message to Peru’s government leaders now. Don’t privatise these vital public services!
